The 12 Days of Christmas: Chicago 1934

Based in Chicago, twelve interwoven stories relate Nick Verriet’s cases leading up to Christmas Day, 1934. Every story transpires within a one-day time frame and finishes with a holiday good-feel ending. Each case has a humorous aspect to match Nick’s uncanny ability to be at the wrong place at the right time. Throughout his exploits, Nick manages to maintain a devil-may-care attitude, yet he remains crucially aware of the plight of those struck down by the Stock Market Crash of 1929. During those simpler times, Nick fashions a personal justice based upon an unfaltering sense of fairness, always on the side of the little guy.
